scooby_doo_do Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Does anyone know the location of a Rover V8 SD1 starter motor? Just trying to work out where the positive of my battery goes too. OR a workshop manual at all ? Thanks Craig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooby_doo_do Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 no real rush - i'll prob be starting the wiring on Saturday. just trying to figure out where one of the cables goes in the boot and how easy it is to get too. http://www.tripkings.co.uk/humber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffvalenti Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Well, the starter motor is on the drivers side of the engine and accessible from underneath. Depending on what exhaust system you're running it can be easily accessible, or a right bastard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Scooby do you still have link to movie, where you turn it on and leave it on idle for some time? I deleted this by mistake and I really loved this sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a lot more trouble with US V8s with close fitting headers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
